Why would anyone define the MDIO bus or PHYs therein?
 - PHY addresses match port addresses
 - Only C22 operations are used
 - No reasonable way to connect any external PHYs
=> relying on ds->user_mii_bus, or even just defining phy_read and phy_read ops
in struct dsa_switch_ops should be sufficient? Unless you need the PHYs in DT,
eg. to define PHY LEDs... But that can then come later once you actually add
support for that.
(netdev maintainer folks: correct me if I'm wrong)

Do not add labels in binding example, remove them from
all ports.
